Fuel pump maybe?

kaidohms · 07-24-2011, 01:34 AM

check spark, fuel, and compression

Mishkin_707 · 07-24-2011, 01:39 AM

Just your alternator

SBCsx · 07-24-2011, 01:42 AM

No check engine lights or anything?

Vernal · 07-24-2011, 05:50 AM

try the tech sec

Just take it to a shop. It's very obvious you have little mechanical background. Not trying to be insulting here. If you go messing around under the hood with a cloudy idea of what's going on, you could always end up making it worse.

You might have a leak somewhere in any of the vacuum lines.

my 240 idles at around 700 rpm and when i start to slow down for a stop the rpm drops below 500 then it either turns off or the rpm goes back up......

+1 check for vacuum leaks

91240coupe · 07-24-2011, 12:46 PM

UPDATE!!!! i checked my oil there is no oil so i think its no oil thats the problem.....

Okay kiddo, for future reference...

Tech questions belong in Tech Talk, and you need to make sure you check all the simple little shit on your car BEFORE you make a Thread. No one on the internet can magically diagnose what is wrong, without you thoroughly going over the engine first. Especially for something as stupid as not having any oil in the engine.

Consider this a learning experience.
